“I used to take my dog to a place where they didn’t have access to an outdoor space. Big Times has an outdoor space that each dog can access through a dog door at the rear of their kennel & is fenced off on both sides & the back so they are completely safe. They are very reasonably priced too. I highly recommend them.” ~ Jill C., August 2019, 5-Star Google Review

“We took our German Shepherd there two times and she is wonderful! She was a beast before we took her there. The people were very courteous and they made sure that you did what you were supposed to do and if you do what they tell you to do your dog will do what you wanted to do. Thank you Big Times Kennel.” ~ Aunt Betty, December 2018 – Facebook Recommendation

“Our Standard Poodle puppy just graduated from Manners 101 and we can’t say enough good things about the class. The teachers (Gina and John) were knowledgeable and patient and there was great one-on-one interaction. We followed John’s advice of one 15 minute homework session a day, and it really worked! We left with a solid foundation of the basics. Look forward to returning for more classes.” ~ Joan R., October 2018 – 5-Star Google Review

“Hello John,

We have been so happy with your manners 101 training, your staff is top notch and we learned a lot.

Scout the Airedale has continued training at home, our three children can now give her the sit stay command in the house and she is a good listener with them. This is a huge success since now the kids can get her food bowl, fill up, and set out for her without her jumping on them or pushing them. Also, the kids can walk her out to the leash and take her for walks. We are so happy with the everyday changes we see.

We have seen a big difference with her not jumping on company, we had a picnic this weekend and she did not jump on the adults. She still gets excited and jumps on kids when they run and play.

I have written all three of the summer dates on the calendar, and we will plan to come.

We would love to board her with your staff when we go on vacation this summer. It will be in late July.

I was happy to hear from you, we think about our training tips often. Have a wonderful day.” ~ Kelsey B., June 2018
